Fantom’s Price Skyrockets
In other news, rumors of a comeback from Andre Cronje, the project’s core DeFi architect, have spiked Fantom’s price by 25% within 24 hours.
Fantom lost $3.62 billion in market capitalization while Andre was away, but even without its core architect, it has remained true to its tokenomics. As in recent months, some of its supply has been burned, staking rewards have increased and grants from Gitcoin have been distributed to contributors.
